Technically, I am still a newbie. But, I have opened enough HDDs to know where the “secret” screws usually are hiding under labels and stickers. I need help on this one. I was doing fine until I wanted to get at the platters, etc. And, low and behold no secret screws that I can find under any labels or stickers.

Help! How do I get this critter open without a hydraulic press or plasma torch?

You need to pull the seam off the edge of the outside, that thin strip.Then use a very small standard (flathead) driver to pry the case lid off. And use care with these, they tend to develop sharp edges that love nothing more than slicing through fingers.
